More important than changing the thermostat (in my opinion) is the radiator. I had purchased the lower temp thermostat and switch for my '93 NA, but blew the head gasket before I got them in. While doing the HG, I replaced the radiator with a new Nissens, and even with the higher temp thermostat in the car, it runs cooler. A 20-25 year old radiator will have degradation of efficiency, and the car was designed with the higher temp thermostat.
